New Design Discussions:

Sheila sent out a link to the next iteration of the dashboard spec.  
There were no significant features added, just some mockups, and  
clarifications that came out the review session.

Discussions continued around the dashboard spec. Mimi posted answers  
to all the questions that came up in the dashboard spec review.

DashboardSpecReviewQuestions
+ Bryan S with a few follow-up questions.
	+ Keyboard short-cuts - Sheila replied that there would be a  
separate keyboard spec for the Beta and that what we had in Alpha2 is  
fine for now.
	+ Mimi responded and clarified the behavior when you multi-select  
rows in the table then click on an item (within that selection or  
outside of that selection).

Sheila summarized an old thread which was a survey of number and  
flavor or recurring events. We want to use this information as an  
input for our performance test data set.

Davor responded to a post by Sheila on the behavior of the delete  
key. Davor agreed that there are 2 different delete actions based on  
whether or not the item is deleted completely or simply removed from  
the selected collections. Ecco supports this behavior. He brought up  
the issue of orphaned items but we probably won't have that in  
Chandler since every item has to belong to at least one collection.  
Reid seconded Sheila's request that the delete key simply remove  
unless it's the last  instance of the item or we delete it from the  
all collection.
